Travel through time to discover South Australia’s rich history

Over the past 10 weeks, we have brought you 40 objects from the History Trust of South Australia’s digital collection to celebrate the organisation’s 40th anniversary. Here we pull the entire digital exhibition together to allow you to enjoy the entire journey through the ages.

From the games people played and the clothes they wore to a look at how work and education have evolved, the digital exhibition looked at both the light-hearted and the serious aspects of how South Australia has become what it is today.
